about

“The Missing Link”: This song was co-written by my friend, violinist/vocalist Mazz Swift (www.mazzmuzik.com). The lyrics are interpretational, but the overall theme is restlessness, searching for meaning, obsession with something or somebody. Musically, the vocals and arrangements were inspired by King’s X and Yes.
-Joe Deninzon

lyrics

THE MISSING LINK
(Joe Deninzon/Mazz Swift)

This rain keeps falling
I drown in my drink
Spend my life searching
For the missing link
The phone keeps ringing
But I’m on the brink
This chains as strong as
The missing link

Hungry don’t have to swallow
Thirsty don’t have to drink
Broke I don’t have to borrow
Blinded don’t have to blink
Lonely don’t want to see you
Stoned dancing in the rain
I slowly fall through this dream
Holding back each silent scream

Stare out the window
Can’t face the truth
Get buried under this
Burden of proof
The moon is rising
In the sand I sink
My legs weighed down by
The missing link

Freezing don’t ask for blankets
Pierced I don’t feel the pain
An itch I don’t have to scratch it
I’ll find another vein
Broken don’t have to mend it
You keep the other half
I slowly fall through this wall
And in the darkness hear you call me

I’m burning but you can’t help me
You’ll never put out the fire

I lost my self in this maze
In every cloud I see your face

The clock keeps ticking
There's no time to think
I think I've melted the missing link
